OT: Greatest CW Instrumentals

"Buckaroo" was a good workout for Buck Owens fenders. Orange Blossom Special was a great match to Scruggs and Flatt.
 
Sorry, folks, but I cannot help myself.

Below is a link to Stranger On The Shore, a number one clarinet instrumental in 1961.

Again, hardly a CW song, but I'm not getting much response aside from Foggy Mountain Breakdown and Orange Blossom Special.

Stranger On The Shore
 
floyd cramer- last kiss
non- country- percy faith- theme from summer place- the MOST relaxing song I know
kenny ball- midnight in moscow
duaneeddy- rebel rouser
 
This doesn't qualify as such, but as instrumentals go check out Macyn Taylor's version of Black Mountain Rag on U-tube. She is also a banjo player. Some of her later stuff shows how good she really is as an instrumentalist.
 
I know and like all of those, Bill.

Yes, Theme From A Summer Place is a very relaxing song. I remember hearing it on the car radio when I was small.

Anything by Chet Atkins, maybe let Floyd Cramer and Boots Randolph in also.

Or hand Roy Clark a 12 string guitar and tape his mouth shut.
 
Roy Clark playing "Malaguena" (or just about anything else); Glen Campbell playing "William Tell Overture" (or just about anything else); "Dueling Banjos", played by any number of very good musicians.

Other great instrumentals: "Music Box Dancer" by Frank Mills (does it matter that he's Canadian?), "Exodus" by Ferrante and Teischer; a couple of tunes by the Tijuana Brass.
 
Both my favorites made it on to this thread- "Stranger on the shore", and "Midnight in Moscow".
 
I wondered when someone would mention Music Box Dancer.

One of my favorites.

Steel guitar rag (Bob Wills and Texas Playboys) a couple that would be considered bluegrass like Foggy Mt breakdown- Sledd ridin (osborne Brothers) Black Mountain Rag, and a couple more from Flatt and Scruggs- Dear old Dixie and Shuckin the Corn
 
Really getting off topic now but, speaking of talent, how about The Traveling Wilburys.

Roy Orbison was one of my favorites. Tragically, he was taken home in the middle of a great comeback.

That is fantastic, Briar Hill.

I'm not a musician but I do not see a bass guitar. Is Roy picking out those low notes with his six string?

Dean
 
If you want to listen to an EXPERT award winning fiddle player, look up Daniel Carwile, Lexington, KY. He is my wife's relation
 
1952. Les Paul and Mary Ford, "Hold that Tiger Rag." What we Jitterbugged to BEFORE Rock and Roll.
